Mesarthim is a modern star name adopted by the International Astronomical Union in the IAU-Catalog of Star Names (IAU-CSN). Its origin is Arabic. It is the name of HIP8832 (γ1 Ari, HR 546) in constellation Ari.

==Etymology and History==

The formation of this name begins with the Arabic lunar mansion name al-sharatan, for β and γ Ari. From the numerous medieval lists of the Arabic lunar mansions (all in Latin transliteration), the Renaissance scholar Johannes Bayer grasped the form Sartai, and used it for the three brighter stars α, β and γ Ari. Bayer also erroneously explained Sartai as from the Hebrew word mesharethim, "servants", rather than from al-sharatan. Subsequently, Bayer's erroneous word, written as "Mesarthim", was applied as a star name.
